Morning Box Score: Magic Rout Bulls

By Marcus Gilmer in News on Jan 1, 2009 5:30PM

Scoring 38 first half points won't cut it against most NBA teams and it certainly won't cut it against the Orlando Magic. That's all the Bulls could muster and despite outscoring the Magic 34-25 in the fourth quarter, the Bulls still fell by 19, 113-94. Joakim Noah led the Bulls with 19 points off the bench and Ben Gordon added 18. Gordon also had the understatement of the night when he said, "I think we can play a lot better than we're playing right now."
